Located in the northwestern part of New Taipei City, Taiwan, Xinzhuang City is adjacent to Taipei City, and is one of the important satellite cities of the Taipei metropolitan area. During the Qing Dynasty, Xinzhuang was once a major trading town in Northern Taiwan, known as the "Second Monga", and still retains a wealth of historical relics, such as the Xinzhuang Jizangan Temple, Guangfu Palace, and other centuries-old temples. In terms of transportation, the MRT system connects Taipei with Xinzhuang, and the convenient highway network also makes it an active area for commuting and commercial activities. In recent years, the development of the Xinzhuang Subcenter has led to urban renewal, integrating modern commercial, cultural and residential functions, while traditional bazaars and old streets still remain, demonstrating the urban charm of blending the old with the new.
São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
